Hi IndieDBers! Are you prepared? It's been a long time coming...
Turn out the lights, take a deep breath, and prepare yourself. Explore the depths of the immersive, atmospheric world of Kraven Manor. Uncover its secrets, solve its mystical puzzles, and face the growing threat within.

Dynamically build the manor around you. Find miniature room models and carry them back to an increasingly elaborate scale model of the manor. Adjusting the model causes rooms to move and appear in real space, awaiting your arrival.
Each new room exposes revelations into the troubling past of William Kraven. Face your fears and see if you have what it takes...the doors of Kraven Manor await you.
Just in time for Halloween (and the weekend!), you can finally purchase Kraven Manor on Steam!! To celebrate our launch, the game is available at a 10% discount for the next week--so be sure to spread the word!
Thank you all for believing in our project and supporting it to be Greenlit on Steam. It has been one heck of a journey since starting work on this as students at SMU Guildhall. For most of us on the team, this is our first actual game to both work on and release--seeing it come this far is absolutely surreal. We are forever grateful for everything you have done to help get this into people's hands and sincerely hope you enjoy the final experience!
You can purchase the game in the Steam store here: Store.steampowered.com

|ESPN: SportsNation
Welcome back to Mavs chat. Thanks for joining me. Are the Mavs on the brink or is there hope?Let's see what you think...
What's going on Jeff? Hope everything is well. While all of MavsNation seems to be making excuses for why the Mavs are down 2-0, shouldn't they start to look at the late turnovers and stagnant offense down the stretches as the real cause for our 0-2 hole we've dug?
Fanatic, thanks for the question. I'd say that's a great place to start. Two turnovers by Dirk in the final 90 seconds of Game 1. A horrendous Jason Kidd pass late in Game 2. One FG in the final 2 minutes of both games and that was an uncontested Jet layup with 20 seconds to play in Game 2 and OKC up 3. The late-game blunders all season against the Thunder is a mystery. Not only are they just missing shots, but they scramble around and don't play with the poise we became accustomed to last season.
The Mavericks have never been swept in the Dirk/Cuban era. If this happens this year how deep will the cuts go as to rebuilding?
Micah, you haven't been paying attention to this team's offseason goals. Whether they get swept in the first round or lose in the NBA Finals, this team isn't for the long haul. Much depends on if Deron Williams signs here. If he does, expect only Dirk and Brandan Wright back and possibly J-Kidd as a backup. If D-Will doesn't sign, then a few more guys could be back. But, this team was and is a stop-gap until next season when it will look much, much different.
Cuban was big on last years FA only getting one year deals at max money to keep flexibility for his summer, why then did we let Stevenson walk and he goes to NJ for one year and 3.5 mill? We could use his defensive presence.
Mavs weren't going to give him anything but the minimum salary so he went to NJ for more money. But, yes, they could use his D right about now.
will the mavs even this thing out or we done in 4 or 5?
That's why we play the games. Series could be 1-1 or 2-0 Mavs. I would think the Mavs get at least 1 at home and then the question is can they win on the road. They're 13-22 this season and are 0-14 against teams with a .600 winning percentage, which OKC obviously is.
Mavs have clearly had trouble defending Russle Westbrook. What do you think the Mavs need to do to stop him and do you think Roddy B could be the answer?
Jeff, nice try on Roddy B, but heck no. That ship has sailed. Roddy is not nearly strong enough or intense enough to handle Westbrook or he already would have gotten the chance. The Mavs chances aren't great with Westbrook other than hope he cools off on the road. No one can keep up with him. Delonte West was sick in Game 1 and didn't do much defensively in Game 2. Kidd and Terry are no match. The Mavs could slide Shawn Marion on him and use Vince Carter perhaps on Durant at times and hope KD stays cold.
It seems to me that in this series with OKC, they really miss the interior defense that Tyson Chandler provided, it seems like the referees are letting most fouls go (no autopsy, no foul) I still think that long term the decision to let Tyson go was the right one, but it really is showing in this season. What do you think?
Absolutely, there's no question. Brendan Haywood played nine minutes in Game 2 and was a non-factor in 19 minutes in Game 1. Ian Mahinmi plays well in stretches, but is foul-prone and is not a big rebounder. Brandan Wright has been awful in limited time. The Mavs dearly miss Tyson's presence inside and his fiery leadership as well. By the way, Tyson will be named Defensive Player of the Year today if you haven't already heard the news.
How far do you think that the Dallas Mavericks will go in the Playoffs?
Chris, I think they are done in a few more games.
Since it's D Will or bust for the offseason, who do you see as potential 'bust' options if we don't get D Will?
Well, as we've repeated, Steve Nash will be on the wish list and Goran Dragic has made himself into a guy a lot of people are going to want. Other than that, I'll have to take a closer look at free agents after the season.
will rick carlise be re-signed if the mavs lose this series?
I fully expect him to be unless he sees another job out there that he really wants. But, I do expect Carlisle to be back.
will the two close loses lead the mavs to believe they can win this series?
Parker, that is certainly the way they view it. If Dirk's 12-foot fadeaway from the baseline drops after bouncing on the rim like 3 times, they might win game 2. If Durant's Game 1 winner bounces out instead of in, they win that. So, yes, they are thinking with the home crowd and little change of luck they can get right back in the series. They would still have to figure out how to win on the road.
Everybody is saying the series is over, are u one of them? Why is that? In my opinion a series doesn't start til a team on the road wins. Also whats your opinion on the refs so far?
Tony, the refs are fine, whatever, stop blaming the refs. The Mavs have to execute, bottom line. I do think OKC wins the series, I thought that all along, picking OKC in 6. I just haven't seen anything from the Mavs all season to suggest they are the better team. They have been a very mediocre scoring and shooting club all year and that hasn't changed. They haven't closed well all year and that hasn't changed.
How much of a chance do the Mavs have to get back to OKC 2-2?
I think OKC takes at least 1 in Dallas.
Are their any players that the Mavs should put in their starting line up to give more energy to the team in this play-off series?
Dylan, only guy I can suggest is Mahinmi. Haywood has brought no energy. The problem starting Mahinmi is the poor foul situation he tends to get himself in. I sort of suggested moving Marion onto Westbrook and starting Vince Carter to guard Durant, which would bring West off the bench, but that's a dangerous matchup for Durant.
Is vince carter done as a nba player?
Well, some thought that the last two seasons before signing with Dallas. But he's been a surprise this year, pretty steady although he went through a pretty good lull after the All-Star game. He's only 7-of-23 FGs in this series, so he needs to give them more offensive punch off the bat, no doubt.
how much could we use a productive odom right now?
Trey, exactly what the Mavs are probably asking themselves, especially Cuban. They really thought that he would help them make another run without Tyson. Could you imagine a versatile 6-10 forward that can score and help defend Durant right now? What a luxury that would be. Unfortunately, he's in LA right now trying to figure out his life.
If Deron's not coming here, would Nic Batum be a good candidate for targeting
I believe that Batum is a restricted free agent so Portland can match any team's offer and I would be hard-pressed to see them let him go. Also saw where the Spurs might have significant interest in making an offer to pair Batum with countryman Tony Parker. That would be a huge coup for the Spurs. I really like Batum's game, so yeah if he could be had it would be great.
I have not seen any mention of RC's use of timeouts, but they had no timeouts at the end of game one when they could of used one and left one on the table in game 2 when they should have used one. Does he need to let his team play through some of the OKC spurts to better manager late game scenarios, especially as close as this series is?
Well, playing through spurts is something that Rick has not allowed to happen. He is quick on the timeout trigger at the first sign of an OKC run in hopes that he can stem any momentum from building. Of course it didn't help OKC go up 46-30 in Game 2. What helped there was OKC deciding to launch a bunch of 3s that helped get Dallas back in the game.
Will the Mavs look at trying Roddy on the floor to penetrate the paint to try and get Dirk and JET better looks?
Roddy get Dirk and Jet better looks? If only it worked that way. It looks like Roddy will be used in desperate situations such as Game 2 down 46-30. Roddy had little to do with that run, just coincidence that it happened when he came in.
Well, looks that will do it for questions today. As always thanks for joining me. Make espndallas.com your home page for all the latest Mavs news.Follow me on Twitter at @espn_caplan.Thanks again everyone.

Economies of scale and scope in the provision of diagnostic techniques and therapeutic services in Portuguese hospitals
This paper analyses the provision of auxiliary clinical services that are typically carried out within the hospital. We estimate a flexible cost function for the three most important (cost- wise) diagnostic techniques and therapeutic services in Portuguese hospitals: Clinical Pathology, Medical Imaging and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Our objective in carrying out this estimation is the evaluation of economies of scale and scope in the provision of these services. For all services, we find evidence of ray economies of scale and some evidence of economies of scope. These results have important policy implications and can be related to the ongoing discussion of where and how should hospitals provide these services.

State Representative Cindy Kirchhofer represents House District 89, which lies in the Eastern/Southeastern portion of central Marion County and includes parts of Warren, Franklin and Perry Townships.
The 119th General Assembly will mark Rep. Kirchhofer's third term as representative, but she already has an established record of public service. She has served two terms as Chairperson of the Perry Township Government Board and Vice President of the Beech Grove Redevelopment Commission. She has also served on the Indiana Paralegal Association Board of Directors and the Marion County Citizens Police Complaint Board.
Rep. Kirchhofer received her Paralegal Certificate from IUPUI.
Her father is a veteran of the Korean War and her grandfather is a veteran of World War II. Additionally, many of her family members have served in the United States Army.
Rep. Kirchhofer and her husband, a full time fireman, live in Beech Grove. She has one daughter, who received her Undergraduate Degree from Purdue in Psychology and Law and Society with a minor in Anthropology. She obtained her Master's Degree from IU School of Social Work.

As your representative, serving our community and improving quality of life for Hoosiers gives me great joy. While I always enjoy crafting and working on legislation that benefits our area, one of the things I look forward most in my role is being able to grow and encourage our state's future leaders, especially young women.
The legislative session has come to an end, and I am proud of all that was accomplished to benefit Hoosier families. However, one of our greatest achievements this session was passing our state's biennial budget. Every two years, the Legislature is given the task of reviewing our state's finances and crafting a budget. For the House Republicans, our goal was to pass an honestly balanced budget, without increasing taxes on hardworking, while making strategic investments to areas like education and public safety as well. I am proud we were able to deliver on these promises.

Nothing says Independence Day quite like cooking out in the backyard or at one of the country's many national parks. And while cookouts tend to offer a much less expensive way to celebrate July 4th than going out to eat, they still have many financial pitfalls that can lead you to overspend – and a dependence on credit runs afoul of all that Independence Day stands for. (Holiday expenses can drown you in debt. Find out how to avoid this festive spending hangover. See How To Reduce Holiday Debt.)
TUTORIAL: Budgeting Basics
To avoid overspending on your July 4th celebration, you just need to celebrate July 4th on a budget. Here are some easy tips to keep you in the black on this red, white and blue day.
Don't Buy more Food than You Need
You definitely want to have enough food to feed everyone who comes to celebrate with you, but that doesn't mean you need enough food to feed an army. Consider the normal eating habits of those who are attending and try to buy enough to feed them what they normally eat in a single sitting. You can always freeze food if you buy too much, but remember that frozen meat doesn't last forever, so avoiding overbuying is still the best option.
Mix High End with the Inexpensive
Steak doesn't need to be the only meat at your barbecue. Your guests will generally find something they enjoy if you provide them with a variety of meats like hot dogs, hamburgers and chicken. If you have vegetarians attending, simple vegetables like baked potatoes, salads and roasted corn offer perfect solutions.
Avoid Prepared Foods
Deli platters, prepared salads and desserts often come with a higher price tag than those you make yourself. Make as much food from scratch as you can and avoid convenience food. (Many cruise costs are fixed, but it's the little extras that will put a big dent in your pocketbook. Check out 3 Money-Saving Cruise Ship Tips.)
Bring Your Own
As the host of the barbecue, you are expected to provide food and drinks, but that doesn't mean that you have to make sure you have the wide variety of drinks it would take to satisfy every guest's unique preference. On your invitation, mention what drinks you will have at the party and let guests know that if they want something that falls outside the items on this list, they should bring it themselves. In addition, stick with inexpensive drinks like beer or soda and let the guests bring their own alcohol for mixed drinks.
Dispose of the Disposables
No one wants to think about doing dishes at the end of a cookout, but buying plastic dinnerware and plates can be expensive. When you use real plates and flatware, you may have more messes to clean up but you will definitely lower your grocery bill.
Buy Used, Not New
If you are thinking about buying some outdoor game sets to entertain your guests during your July 4th cookout, don't run to the store and buy new activity sets. Instead, check out your local thrift shops and Craigslist. Whether you are looking for pool toys, sport sets or outdoor games, there are probably many inexpensive sets you can find that have been only lightly used during a one-time barbecue.
Lose the Decorations
Fourth of July parties don't need decorations. A single American Flag to remind everyone of the reason for the celebration is enough. Your guests don't care nearly as much about streamers, centerpieces and other disposable decorations as they do about having fun together.
Limit the Fireworks
If you plan to have your party extend into the night, then you might be tempted to light fireworks. If your party is near a city-sponsored fireworks display, you can save money by planning to walk to that display instead of coordinating your own. If not, then make sure you get a small variety of fireworks and sparklers, but don't feel the need to create an epic fireworks display. A few wisely chosen ones go a long way.
The Bottom Line
The ultimate goal of any social gathering is to have fun enjoying each other's company. If you want to celebrate July 4th on a budget, the best rule you can follow is not to get too gimmicky with your party and just stick to basics: some music, food, drink and good friends. (We give you a list of informative and entertaining reads that you'll want to share with others this season. See 10 Books For The Holidays.)

I have a Perl application which writes logs to a file using open and print calls.
open (FH, "d:\\temp.txt");

- CreateFile with FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING for the dwFlagsAndAttributes parameter. However, this has memory alignment issues to consider (i.e File Access buffers should be sector aligned; An application determine the sector size by calling GetDiskFreeSpace)
- Use WriteFile to write data to the file. This write would be unbuffered and instead of going to the cache, it straightaway goes to the disk.
- Finally, call FlushFileBuffers to flush the metadata associated with the files.
Could someone please assist with the Win32 APIs from Perl for these 3 calls.

Interference between pacemakers/implantable cardioverter defibrillators and video capsule endoscopy
ABSTRACT Our Letter to the Editor, related to the article "Small bowel capsule endoscopy in patients with cardiac pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators: Outcome analysis using telemetry" by Cuschieri et al, comments on some small errors, that slipped into the authors discussions. The given informations concerning the pacemaker- and implantable cardioverter defibrillators modes were inaccurate and differ between the text and the table. Moreover, as 8 of 20 patient's pacemakers were programmed to VOO or DOO ("interference mode") and one patient was not monitored by telemetry during capsule endoscopy, 9 of 20 patients (45%) lack the informations of possible interference between capsule endoscopy their implanted device. Another objection refers to the interpretation of an electrocardiogram (figure 1, trace B) presented: in contrast to the author's opinion the marked spike should be interpreted as an artefact and not as "undersensing of a fibrillatory wave". Finally, three comments to cited reviews were not complete respectively not quoted correctly.

ABSTRACT: The diagnostic benefit of capsule endoscopy in suspected small-bowel disease is high and seems to be superior to that with conventional methods and scintigraphy. Because of the limited clinical experience in patients with cardiac pacemakers and other implanted electrical devices, it is recommended that capsule endoscopy should not be used in such cases. We investigated the potential for capsule endoscopy to interfere with cardiac pacemakers in vitro. 21 different pacemakers and leads were positioned in a 0.9 % saline solution in a tank. Pin jacks were placed that were in contact with the solution. The pacemaker impulse was recorded and an inhibiting signal could be coupled in. The capsules (Given Imaging and Olympus) were placed in different positions relative to the cardiac pacemaker and finally placed on the case of the pacemaker, for 1 minute in each site. The functioning of the pacemaker was observed continuously. The effect on the pacemaker was noted particularly as inhibition, synchronization, or no effect. The pacemaker was then inhibited using a standard test signal. There was no interference between the video capsule and the cardiac pacemakers in our experiment in spite of the close proximity of the two devices. The clinical use of capsule endoscopy is unproblematic in patients with cardiac pacemakers.Endoscopy 02/2008; 40(1):36-9. DOI:10.1055/s-2007-995353 · 5.05 Impact Factor
Article: Small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) in patients with cardiac pacemakers (CP) and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD): outcome analysis using telemetry review[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To determine if there were any interactions between cardiac devices and small bowel capsules secondary to electromagnetic interference (EMI) in patients who have undergone small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE). Authors conducted a chart review of 20 patients with a cardiac pacemaker (CP) or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) who underwent continuous electrocardiographic monitoring during their SBCE from 2003-2008. authors searched for unexplained electrocardiogram (ECG) findings, changes in CP and ICD set parameters, any abnormality in transmitted capsule data, and adverse clinical events. There were no adverse events or hemodynamically significant arrhythmias reported. CP and ICD set parameters were preserved. The majority of ECG abnormalities were also found in pre- or post- SBCE ECG tracings and the CP behavior during arrhythmias appeared appropriate. Two patients seemed to have episodes of undersensing by the CP. However, similar findings were documented in ECGs taken outside the time frame of the SBCE. One patient was observed to have a low signal encountered from the capsule resulting in lack of localization, but no images were lost. Capsule-induced EMI remains a possibility but is unlikely to be clinically important. CP-induced interference of SBCE is also possible, but is infrequent and does not result in loss of images transmitted by the capsule.03/2012; 4(3):87-93. DOI:10.4253/wjge.v4.i3.87

ABSTRACT: The topic of interference of pacemakers by mobile phones has evoked a surprisingly strong interest, not only in pacemaker patients, but also in the public opinion. The latter is the more surprising, as in the past, the problem of interference has scarcely found the attention that it deserves in the interest of the patient. It was the intention of our investigation to test as many pacemaker models as possible to determine whether incompatibility with mobile phones of different modes may exist, using an in vitro measuring setup. We had access to 231 different models of 20 manufacturers. During the measurements, a pulse generator together with a suitable lead was situated in a 0.9 g/L saline solution, and the antenna of a mobile phone was positioned as close as possible. If the pulse generator was disturbed, the antenna was elevated until interference ceased. The gap in which interference occurred was defined as "maximum interference distance." All three nets existing in Germany, the C-net (450 MHz, analogue), the D-net (900 MHz, digital pulsed), and the E-net (1,800 MHz, digital pulsed) were tested in succession. Out of 231 pulse generator models, 103 pieces corresponding to 44.6% were influenced either by C- or D-net, if both results were totaled. However, this view is misleading as no patient will use C- and D-net phones simultaneously. Separated into C- or D-net interference, the result is 30.7% for C or 34.2% for D, respectively, of all models tested. The susceptible models represent 18.6% or 27% of today's living patients, respectively. All models were resistant to the E-net. With respect to D-net phones, all pacemakers of six manufacturers proved to be unaffected. Eleven other manufacturers possessed affected and unaffected models as well. A C-net phone only prolonged up to five pacemaker periods within 10 seconds during dialing without substantial impairment to the patient. Bipolar pacemakers are as susceptible as unipolar ones. The following advice for patients and physicians can be derived from our investigations: though 27% of all patients may have problems with D-net phones (not C- or E-net), the application should generally not be questioned. On the contrary, patients with susceptible devices should be advised that a distance of 20 cm is sufficient to guarantee integrity of the pacemaker with respect to hand held phones. Portables, on the other hand, should have a distance of about 0.5 m. Pacemaker patients really suffering from mobile phones are very rare unless the phone is just positioned in the pocket over the pulse generator. The contralateral pocket or the belt position guarantees, in 99% of all patients, undisturbed operation of the pacemaker. A risk analysis reveals that the portion of patients really suffering from mobile phones is about 1 out of 100,000. Nevertheless, it would be desirable in the future if implanting physicians would use only pacemakers with immunity against mobile phones as guaranteed by the manufacturers.Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology 11/1996; 19(10):1431-46.

text: What is the '1700 U.S.A. Flag"? Gerald Swick 3/10/2014 3 Comments Hello, my first time to ask a question: An U.S. active soldier has refused to: Salute the 1700 U.S.A. Flag (our current flag). Why? The U.S.A. flag that was flying at the time, was our current 2014 flag. There were several renditions of the U.S. flag …. so why label it the 1700 flag? What's the history of this? Gem Hunley * * * Dear Gem Hunley, Aside from that soldier's reference to it, this is the first time I have ever heard the term "1700 U.S.A. Flag" used—after more than 20 years in the Army National Guard. Whatever it is, it could not be a reference to the year—there was no United States of America in 1700. As for the soldier's reason for hiding in her car during Retreat and (rather more serious) her boasting of doing so on the Internet, followed by claiming that she is not a disrespectful soldier, this is a current event, rather than history. Moreover, pending the inquiry that she had brought down on her dead, it is not clear why she did it, but she will undoubtedly get a chance to explain. Until then…well, Mr. History is not a mind reader. I can only say that if I was her senior NCO, I'd remind her that Retreat is a salute not merely to the flag but to all Army personnel killed in previous wars (including a whole lot of black soldiers from the Revolution through Afghanistan, in case she brings that matter up), and that her discourteous approach does not reflect the professionalism expected of a soldier. Moreover, since this is a volunteer army, my next recommendation would be that if she has some problem with that, there is nothing to prevent her from cutting short her enlistment, if she doesn't mind possessing an official discharge under other than honorable conditions.

I'm also in agreement with you, Jon, in regard to the young female Servicemember (I cannot in good conscience call her a "soldier"), however this has , sadly, been a problem for many years, particularly among younger troops. I did 4 in the US Navy (1971-75), and I didn't dare try to dodge out on the 1700 Retreat Ceremonies. Same thing later on when I did 3 in the US Army (don't ask…) My feeling was always, "Would I wish the same courtesy to be given to me?" I saluted, even when it seemed to be nothing but a mild pain in the rear; because it was (and still is) my flag. Reply Lyndon 6/14/2014 You don't have to go to a circus to find a clown.

The UAE government has announced that all Emirati federal government employees will see a 70 percent increase of their basic salaries.
December 21, 2009 1:30 by Aarti Nagraj
The UAE cabinet has said that it will increase the basic salaries of all nationals working in the federal government by 70 percent increase, reports The National. The rise applies to nurses and doctors in Ministry of Health hospitals, teachers in government schools and all those under the federal authority, says the report.
The move will increase the basic monthly salary of ministerial undersecretaries from AED31,250 to AED53,125, while the lowest-grade government workers will see salaries increasing from AED1,175 to AED2,000. According to the report, the gross salary includes 40 percent of the basic and 60 percent in benefits.
While the move has undoubtedly been welcomed by the UAE nationals, the timing is surprising – the effects of the global financial crisis have not subsided and the global media has not yet stopped discussing Dubai's huge debts.
Last month, Dubai asked creditors for a six-month debt standstill for its conglomerate Dubai World and its property arm, Nakheel, claiming it was unable to meet its obligations. It also announced that it would be restructuring the company. The news shocked global markets, prompting the media to predict the end of the glamorous city.
The emirate was saved from defaulting on Nakheel's $3.52 billion Islamic debt on December 14, after neighboring Abu Dhabi came to the rescue, offering $10 billion to Dubai on the day the sukuk matured.

Say hello to more inflation, just when it looked like things might stabilise for a while.
Kipp needs to re-look at his maths surely…? 70% of 1,175 for the lowest grade worker is not "just 25aed" but in fact a more reasonable 822.50 aed taking it up to the 2,000 aed per month….agree with all the other concerns in the article though, seems really bizarre timing and a shot in their foot as well…
you're welcome…
So what happens to non-Nationals or non-Emiratis in Federal Govt services ??? And I thought USA's historical past will always give it No. 1 position in Racism …. Some of these "kingdoms" need to wake up (actually its better if they proceed on this path…Future generations are ill destined beforehand…)

Many of you are hosting holiday events this month. There is a good chance you are using chafing dish fuel gel to keep food hot. There is a good chance a fair portion of that gel will go unused. There is also a good chance the gel containers will be improperly thrown away. I spoke with several suppliers of what are considered to be eco-friendlier versions of chafing dish fuel gel recently and was a bit shocked when I learned the truth about what hoteliers have been using for years to heat food. One supplier told me 40 percent of fuel gel is typically wasted. It is considered hazardous waste and should be considered as such at the point of disposal. "The hazardous waste is supposed to be disposed of by opening the can, and then removing the content into a hazmat container," one supplier told me. "The container must be shipped to a hazmat site for disposal."
Anyone looking for concrete evidence that our industry is going green need look no further than the just released report entitled, "The 2014 Lodging Study Hotel Trends: An Inside Look at Popular Amenities and Guest Services." The report summarizes the results of a survey of more than 9,600 hoteliers. The American Hotel & Lodging Assn., along with STR, produced the survey that was funded by the American Hotel & Lodging Educational Foundation. Green Lodging News has reported in the past on this same survey that is generated every two years. If you are an AH&LA member you can get a complete copy of the survey results at no cost. Otherwise, the cost is $1,500 for all of the results or $300 for each individual data point. See the article I posted this past week for details. Among the survey questions were many that have something to do with environmental initiatives.
It is amazing, isn't it, how expensive printer cartridges are. The profit margin on them has got to be incredible. I think about that every time I have to replace a cartridge. A few cartridge purchases almost equals the cost of the printer itself. This past week I wrote and posted an article on remanufactured printer cartridges. Be sure to read it. Remanufactured (a.k.a. reengineered) cartridges, guaranteed to work just as well as new ones, can save you a lot of money and significantly reduce the flow of cartridge waste to the landfill. According to Tech-Optics Inc., a remanufacturer, distributer and seller of toner cartridges for laser jet printers, every year, approximately 400 million cartridges are thrown away. A typical cartridge takes 1,000 years to decompose. Each laser cartridge consists of 2.5 pounds of plastic, along with rubber, steel and aluminum.
This past week I posted an article on Denver's historic Brown Palace Hotel. The 241-room property has quickly distinguished itself as one of the most ambitious green hotels in the United States. The property won the Good Earthkeeping Award in 2013 from the Colorado Hotel and Lodging Assn. and the Good Earthkeeping Award in 2014 from the American Hotel and Lodging Assn. While the property has had bee hives on its roof since 2009, it really has only been the last couple of years that the hotel has gotten its other green efforts in gear. Hotel management made a smart move a little more than two years ago by hiring Brenna St. Onge as Executive Housekeeper. Brenna had been an eco-champion at properties she previously worked at and was eager to energize efforts at the Brown Palace Hotel.
While geared toward gauging consumer reaction to green product claims, a study recently released by UL Environment and conducted by Shelton Group also sheds light, I believe, on how consumers are most likely to react to hotel property green certification claims. In the study, "Under the Lens: Claiming Green, The Influence of Green Product Claims on Purchase Intent and Brand Perception," 1,017 consumers were presented with a series of visual comparisons in which a problematic claim was paired with a legitimate claim or a certified claim. An example of a problematic claim was language on a product that can easily be perceived as greenwashing. A legitimate claim included credible language on a product but the information was not certified by a third party. A certified claim was one substantiated by a third party.
This past week I attended the annual International Hotel, Motel + Restaurant Show (IHMRS) in New York City. It is a show I have attended almost every year since starting in the lodging business in 1989. For those of you who have never attended, the show is one of our industry's largest annual markets and runs in conjunction with Boutique Design New York (BDNY). Together, IHMRS and BDNY this year drew 13,017 trade professionals, an increase of 5 percent from the 12,406 last year. IHMRS this year was sectioned into areas covering green, kitchen design, operations, tabletop and technology. On the BDNY side, attendees could expect to find everything from artwork to furniture to lighting—just about anything of interest to a designer involved in a new hotel or renovation. The Hospitality Green Division of IHMRS was presented in partnership with Green Lodging News. Hospitality Media Group, the manager of IHMRS and BDNY, was the other partner.
The Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation has released a new research study, "The Future of Financing Advanced Energy Efficient Building Equipment." The paper, somewhat of a "Financing 101" for building upgrades, defines the growing building energy efficiency market, specifically focusing on project finance for retrofits in commercial buildings; outlines the major drivers and barriers of the industry; examines the latest financing mechanisms; and reviews the newest technologies that are moving the building sector towards a more efficient future. I highly recommend reading the study if you are planning to finance upgrades to your property—many of you I suspect. The study outlines three financing models of current importance: Energy Service Agreements (ESA) and Managed Energy Service Agreements (MESA); On-Bill Financing (OBF); and Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE).
The second annual Lodging Green & Sustainability Conference + Expo wrapped up in Las Vegas this past week. The event was held at the LEED Gold certified ARIA Resort & Casino. About 230 attended the event that was organized primarily by Lodging Magazine with assistance from EcoGreen Energy Solutions, Green Lodging News and NEWH. I attended last year's event in Dallas. This year's conference and expo attracted about 50 to 60 more people. The growth was noticeable and was exciting to see. The three-day event was packed with educational sessions, a master class on "Waste Management Innovation," a tour of the ARIA Resort & Casino (see my blog post), networking opportunities with exhibitors, and the event's first award presentation and dinner. Covering the conference as a reporter was challenging as each session was packed with highly relevant, newsworthy content and on several occasions there were three sessions held simultaneously.
Greenview has released another report—this one entitled "Green Venue Report 2014—The State of Convention Center Sustainability." It was produced in partnership with Twirl Management. The study's organizers aim to answer the following questions in the report: What are the individual and collective footprints (positive and negative) of events taking place within convention centers? What are best practices in the industry that more convention centers (and their event organizer clients) can benefit from? What innovative efforts by convention centers should be recognized and celebrated? According to Cara Unterkofler, Director, Greenview, a total of 37 convention centers, all of which were in the United States and Canada, were approached and invited to participate in a 108-question survey. The questions covered topics ranging from energy to waste to water to communications. Only 16 convention centers were able to complete the survey.

5 charts on America's (very positive) image in Africa
When President Barack Obama travels to Kenya and Ethiopia later this week, he will likely receive a warm public reception. Obama, whose father was Kenyan, is very popular in both countries, as well as in many other nations in sub-Saharan Africa. But it's not just Obama – as Pew Research Center surveys have shown over the years, the United States consistently receives high marks throughout the region.
Russians warm to China as relations with U.S. cool
As Russia plays host this week to a critical summit of leaders of the emerging market nations of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS), Russian President Vladimir Putin is especially keen on bolstering ties with the leading economic power of the group – China.
Brazilians' views of U.S. rebound as wounds of NSA scandal heal
Revelations in September 2013 that the U.S. government had monitored the private communications of Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff had strained relations between the two countries.
7 charts on how the world views President Obama
Our most recent survey of 40 countries from around the world included a number of questions about Obama and his handling of major international issues.
America's Global Image
Ratings for the U.S. remain mostly positive, with a global median of 69% expressing a favorable view. Countries also express broad support for America's military efforts against ISIS, but are critical of the U.S. government's use of torture after 9/11.
Opinions on Obamacare remain divided along party lines as Supreme Court hears new challenge
Nearly nine-in-ten Republicans are opposed to the 2010 health care law and roughly eight-in-ten Democrats support it. Most Americans say the ACA has not directly affected them or their family.
Dems Have More Positive Image, But GOP Runs Even or Ahead on Key Issues
While majorities say the Democratic Party is open and tolerant, the Republican Party runs even with them on the economy and immigration and holds double-digit leads over the Democrats on terrorism, foreign policy and taxes.
Obama heads to India, where the public is warm to him
Obama's visit to India on Republic Day is expected to usher in a new, positive era in India-U.S. relations — especially at a time when a majority of Indians have a favorable view of the United States and a majority of Americans express a positive opinion of India.
Public opinion on the economy and Obama's handling of it
Strengthening the economy has been one of the public's top priorities for the president and Congress going back even before the Great Recession. Here are key takeaways from our surveys on the state of public opinion about the economy.
State of the Union 2015: How Americans see the nation, their leaders and the issues
As President Obama delivers the State of the Union address Jan. 20, here's a primer of U.S. public opinion on top issues, the state of the nation and the country's political leaders.

We are blessed to be able to help
God's word simmers with time spent
Debra Whittington Thy word have I hid in mine heart… Psalm 119:11 The world is traveling at a fast pace with people running to and fro aimlessly trying to do something.

Actions express love better than words
Leonard Lauriault During the movie "On the Waterfront" (1954), Edie Doyle says to Terry Malloy, "I didn't say I didn't love you. I said to stay away from me." Then there's this guy whose wife complained that he never said he loved her. His response was that he'd told her he loved her when they […]

Leonard Lauriault I resolved several years ago to continue my early morning exercise regime even during the holidays when I wouldn't have to get up for work.

Jesus' presence makes good company
Leonard Lauriault The Christmas season is now upon us. An article I read recently about Christmas mentioned that the book of Matthew begins and ends with reminders that God is with us, which is the meaning of Jesus' name – Immanuel (Matthew 1: 20-23; 28: 18-20). God had made this promise throughout history and fulfilled […]

Although water has been employed for therapeutic purposes more or less systematically for upward of one hundred years, it is only since the publication by Brand, in 1861, of his monograph on the "Hydrotherapy of Typhoid Fever," that the usefulness of this agency has received at all general recognition. Further time was required before the method of Brand was universally accepted, and this result was brought about only by the reduction in mortality that was demonstrated to take place as a result of its adoption. Brand recommended immersion of the typhoid patient for fifteen minutes in water at a temperature of 68 F., whenever the temperature, taken in the rectum every three hours, reached 102.2 F. This formula is, however, not an inflexible one, and its elements may be varied, in accordance with special conditions that may be present, or particular results that may be desired.

ReviewsRipspeed Leather & Chrome 'Cobra' Gear Knob 1 1Looks the biz! After dispatching the original gear knob from my Alfa 147 with a hacksaw (yes they glued it on at the factory) I fitted the Ripspeed Cobra Chrome & Leather gear knob to the gearstick. Feels great and really flatters the Alfa interior as it has black leather and chorome interior so almost looks original, but much better quality! There is no branding on this gear knob, which means if it matches your interior well it could pass as an original item. Feels really good and grippy :-) a good product at a reasonable price, looks the biz... 14 July 20131-1 of 1
